Saint Pius X Catholic High School, Rotherham

West Shield 2026
This afternoon a squad of ten Year 9's went to represent St Pius X at the re-launch of the West Shield Trophy. This was a competition run across the Dearne Valley from 1922 through to 1970, with Pope Pius being the beaten finalists back in 1969.
The boys were outstanding throughout, going through the 5 fixtures unbeaten. One win and four draws left them second out of six teams.
A fantastic effort and a great result for Saint Pius X. ⚽🎖

🎟️ Tickets are available from school reception and Mrs Hinton. ✨

🏏U15 Boys Cricket 🏏

Our U15 boys were in action on Monday after school against Oakwood High School and put on a fantastic display of cricket! 💙💛

Batting first, the boys posted a strong total of 119 runs. There were some excellent performances with the bat, including H Asquith retiring not out on 31 and O Francis retiring not out on 30. 👏🏏

The team showed great teamwork, determination and skill throughout the innings. Unfortunately, after a closely fought contest, Oakwood High School chased down the target on the final ball, finishing on 120 runs.

A tough result to take, but a brilliant performance from the boys — plenty of positives to build on! 💪

Well played, lads! 🏏👏

Our rounders teams have been busy in action recently!

💪 Our Year 9 team competed in the Year 9 Tournament at Wickersley School, where the girls were fantastic throughout, maintaining a consistently strong performance and showing great teamwork and determination.

🌟 Our Year 7 team played away at Winterhill School in their first fixture before half term. The girls were excellent and are already looking forward to their next matches!

Well done to all the players for representing the school so brilliantly. Keep up the great work! 👏⚾️
